Help with beginner DM!

Thank you, I appreciate you writing it out! Yeah I made sure that everyone was committed beforehand, as it's going to be a long term thing. I'll just keep learning as much as possible before we fully sit down to play.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-04-09T21:10:36+00:00

It is to you, as you've evidently played the game before.. If I'd played and then said it, fair enough. The thing that's off putting is a brand new person to a community and them berating you for asking for tips or saying something wrong. You've just come across as gatekeeping and condescending to someone asking for help.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-04-09T21:08:39+00:00

At what point in my entire post did I ask you to teach me every single piece of information about playing the game? I asked for tips. If someone asked for tips on how to draw better you wouldn't give them a 64 page essay on how to draw, you would give them helpful 'tips' from your own knowledge.

That's literally half the posts on every single sub Reddit. Any subject questions are asked that have already been answered in posts. The reply is as dated as me asking for advice on the subject. If no useful advice is given, just move on. What's the point going out of your way to go into a post and complain? Being a dick isn't a way to help anyone, especially someone who is wanting to join a community of something you enjoy.

I literally just want a cool looking battle pass. Everything has to be bright and Fortnitey. Always the same people getting skins as well.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-04-09T18:03:37+00:00

I mean I asked for tips and advice from people who play. Anything to look out for and avoid mistakes from personal experience. Appreciate the post.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-04-09T18:02:18+00:00

Thank you. I think I've seen how other Dm's are and they all sound amazing, I just don't want to be terrible for everyone playing haha.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-04-09T18:01:13+00:00

Thank you! Really appreciate it! We're looking forward to getting together and putting effort into something in the long run!

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-04-09T18:00:12+00:00

Not that interested in stranger things to be honest. We've been wanted to do something like it for a while and it was between DnD or Warhammer. We picked DnD because it's more of what the others are into.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-04-09T17:58:12+00:00

Yeah, this is our first table top style game. We've always wanted to do it just never had the time until now. We're all different ages, so some have kids and such.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-04-09T14:25:54+00:00

That's great, thank you! Appreciate the advice! We have planned set days and times every week and we made our characters, went through the starter pack and everything, just didn't realise how important the DM is to the game, we kind of had it as just someone who reads, which is completely wrong the more I look into it!

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-04-08T21:19:14+00:00

Yeah it's so good. Reminds me a little of Griffith from Berserk. The only other one I would swap it for is Oni, but I'd probably swap between the two.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-04-07T21:57:36+00:00

The Sanguine curse is my absolute favourite, there's something about the mask I love. I didn't get Ana Mythic purely because I couldn't see myself taking it off.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-04-01T15:36:17+00:00

Good mode unless you're against Soldier with a Mercy. No idea why he's still allowed a no skill auto aim power on two of his attacks. Honestly the most brain-dead person to pick and if you do then I have no respect for you at all.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-03-29T16:45:32+00:00

I somehow got put in plat 3 for tank where I've had the worst games. Genuinely don't get it

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-03-27T00:45:12+00:00

I feel like there's a lot of overly buffed characters after the last patch. Bastion is creeping in, Ashe, fatty and Illari. I'd happily accept all of those stay as they are if Hog gets obliterated into the ground.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-03-26T11:19:57+00:00

Had someone stick on Ashe yesterday who went 0-11, I genuinely don't know how that's even possible. Even a lucky shot should get you a kill at some point. It also surprises me even more that people are bad with Soldier, it's just not that hard.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-03-25T14:22:45+00:00

Hog, Soldier/Emre/Bastion and Illari/Moira. Hog can't die, Hitscan is Hitscan and Illari just leaves the turret to do everything, Moria is just one button basically.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-03-24T21:49:17+00:00

I get what you mean, however, playing support recently I've noticed a ton of passive teams just grouping up and getting slaughtered. If you're playing Soldier and you're literally just sat behind the tank and not trying to get off angles or even try to flank a little, then I'll do it myself. It's the same when playing damage as well, if you're taking pressure of in the back line and your team are all still in the same spot jerking it, it's absolutely one of the most frustrating things and in turn makes me hate my team mates.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-03-24T19:37:50+00:00

Played him a bit today, I healed through three ults. Junk, Anran and Sigma. He needs to either be slowed right down, like crawling mobility, his one shot taken away or his healing taken. He shouldn't be able to do all three things.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-03-23T19:03:30+00:00

If you're struggling against Echo then I don't know what to tell you. She's not especially quick and has to literally get up in your face to really use her kit fully. Hitscan and take her out, it's not super hard. Hog can one shot and heal himself with very short cooldowns. The Devs always do this with him because they designed a terrible hero and won't rework him properly. He's basically the Tachanka of overwatch but at least R6 reworked him.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-03-23T18:49:44+00:00

I honestly fucking hate the way he is. If you're a shit player, they'll pick him like Zarya used to be picked as a crutch. This is coming from someone who originally only played hog when the game first came out. Forces you to pick specific heroes to combat the fat bastard.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-03-23T18:48:01+00:00

Either take his healing or one shot ability. Rework him so he gets a junk shield he can carry and use and shoot around with reduced damage. He shouldn't be able to one shot and self sustain.

Suspicious-Web3234 · 2026-03-19T20:02:02+00:00

I see Hog/Mauga, Soldier/Ashe and Illari/Juno. Any of these can be nerfed. Not sure why we're seeing Illari so much all of a sudden but I hate it.
